4 Reasons to Have Your Newborn Checked by a Chiropractor
Give your child the best start to life!
We know that the first few weeks of postpartum are some of the most joyful, happy, overwhelming weeks of your life. There is so much that you are being asked to do. What is most important is making sure your baby is happy and healthy. We are passionate about pediatric chiropractic care because it is crucial for helping give your child the best start to life. Here are 4 reasons why your newborn should be checked by a chiropractor.
1. Support proper growth and development
All stages of growth and development involve proper function of the nervous system. 65% of neurological development occurs in your child's first year of life. Optimizing this communication pathway with specific, neurologically based adjustments is a safe and effective way to help your baby develop a highly-functioning nervous system.
2. Prevent structural issues from the start
It is much easier to grow a healthy child than fix a sick adult. Most of the issues adults deal with start during childhood as they are growing and developing.
3. Birth is hard on your babies body
The process of birth causes a lot of stress on your baby's spine and nervous system. Having an assessment done to check for proper function is crucial to help your child grow up happy and healthy.
4. Subluxations lead to symptoms
When subluxations go unchecked, colic, constipation, reflux, sleep troubles and more can develop.
Bringing your child into a neurologically based chiropractor after birth is a great way to give them the BEST start to life!
